I will let this run for a couple of weeks. A number of you have already and graciously responded. I will publish the outcomes at the end of the two weeks since you have to participate to see the results and I asked new owners not to contribute.

Feel free to use this thread to comment if the questions spur additional questions or you feel the need to elaborate. My purpose is to help folks who are contemplating the purchase of a used Newell enter into the process with eyes wide open.
